First Official Footage From ‘Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues’ Released

 

Say goodbye to San Diego and hello to the Big Apple. After nearly ten years, Ron Burgundy and the San Diego Channel 4 news team have returned, this time taking 1980’s New York City by storm.

Yesterday, the first official footage from Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues appeared online, and Paramount announced plans to release an alternate trailer this weekend.

The sequel, directed by Adam McKay and produced by Judd Apatow, will star Will Ferrell as the mustachioed broadcasting buff Ron Burgundy, along with his co-anchor Christina Applegate and bumbling news team of Paul Rudd, David Koechner, and Steve Carell. Kristen Wiig will be joining the cast, playing the role of Steve Carell’s new love interest, as well as James Marsden and Meagan Good.

The sequel is set to hit theaters this year on December 20th. With lines such as “I’m going to do the thing that God put Ron Burgundy on this Earth to do: have salon-quality hair and read the news,” we’re already looking forward to quoting this movie for years to come. Is it too soon for us to get in line now?
